Filter by:This extension study of subjects previously enrolled in studies CTAP101-CL-3001 or CTAP101-CL-3002 allows long term evaluation of the safety and efficacy of CTAP101 Capsules in reducing elevated intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) and correcting vitamin D insufficiency in stage 3 or 4 chronic kidney disease patients.
This is a randomized, controlled, open, three-armed, multi-centre study designed to compare the effects of dual-release hydrocortisone preparations versus conventional glucocorticoid therapy on anthropometric parameters, metabolic syndrome, infectious, immunological profile, cardiovascular system, bone mass and quality of life in patients affected by primary or secondary adrenal insufficiency.
Oesophagogastric cancer is a major cause of cancer related mortality, with an overall 5-year survival rate of 10% worldwide and patients are often diagnosed with locally advanced or metastasized disease at first presentation. For advanced oesophagogastric cancer fluoropyrimidines are the backbone of palliative chemotherapy and is commonly used in 2- or 3-drug combinations . However, in clinical practice after progression on first line therapy, a substantial number of oesophagogastric cancer patients may not be able to start second line chemotherapy due to rapid clinical deterioration. Therefore, new triplets with high anti-tumor activity and low toxicity are urgently needed. Given the activity of capecitabine and oxaliplatin containing regimens and the potential of taxanes in oesophagogastric cancer, the investigators propose a phase I study combining capecitabine and oxaliplatin with Nab-paclitaxel. Solvent-based taxanes (paclitaxel, docetaxel) can cause severe toxicities not only by the active agents itself but also by the solvents like cremophor. Nab-paclitaxel (Abraxane) is a solvent-free formulation of paclitaxel encapsulated in albumin. It does not require premedication with corticosteroids or antihistamines to prevent the risk of solvent-mediated hypersensitivity reactions. This new formulation improves safety profile, allows higher dosing with shorter infusion duration, and produces higher tumor drug concentration. It has proven activity in breast cancer, non small lung cancer and pancreatic cancer, as well as in gastric cancer models.
Published prognostic scores have limitations in prediction of long term survival after stereotactic radiotherapy for brain metastases. Moreover, no validated tools are available for prediction of local failure. The value of radiomics is evaluated in this perspective.
The main purpose of this study is to learn more about how the investigational drug, LY3022855, affects the immune system in participants with advanced breast or prostate cancer that has not responded to other treatments. Treatment may last up to 6 cycles (cycle = 6 weeks).
The primary objective of the study is to determine the activity of selexipag on Raynaud attack frequency in subjects with Raynaud's Phenomenon (RP) secondary to Systemic Sclerosis (SSc).
This research study is evaluating the effectiveness of the drug called cabozantinib (alone or in combination with trastuzumab) as a possible treatment for advanced breast cancer in which the cancer has spread to the brain.
To determine: 1. The safety of Vigam® Liquid in patients with primary or secondary antibody deficiency (PAD or SAD). 2. The efficacy of Vigam® Liquid in patients with primary or secondary antibody deficiency. 3. The half-life of Vigam® Liquid after 4 months of treatment. 4. The subclass and total gammaglobulin concentrations after each infusion of Vigam® Liquid.
This trial will enroll approximately 6,000 patients with recent embolic stroke of unknown source (ESUS). Patients will be randomized to dabigatran or acetylsalicyclic acid (ASA) (1:1 ratio) and have visits every three months. The study doctor may prescribe blinded concomitant ASA for pts with coronary artery disease but this is not mandatory. All Adverse Events (AEs), Serious Adverse Events (SAEs), outcome events will be recorded. The trial will conclude when the required number of stroke events are positively adjudicated which is estimated to take 3 years (including 2.5 years of enrollment).
The primary objectives of this study are to investigate the safety and tolerability profile of the therapeutic vaccine hVEGF26-104/RFASE and to determine the effective dose of hVEGF26-104/RFASE required to neutralize VEGF in serum, defined as a VEGF level below 9,0 pg/mL.
